Never in Hillary Clinton's decades in the public eye has her favorability rating been as low as it is now. That's according to a new Washington Post/ABC News poll out Wednesday. While 41 percent of Americans view Clinton favorably, a striking 56 percent view her negatively, which, The Washington Post reported, marks "the worst image Clinton has had in her quarter-century in national public life."

Prior to these numbers, Clinton's lowest favorability rating was in July, at 42 percent. Her highest unfavorable rating was in June, at 55 percent.
